The Film:
Always & Everywhere is a magical, heartwarming family drama in the vein of Wonder and Beasts of The Southern Wild. It is the story of a young family finding hope and courage in the face of grief and loss, seen through the unique POV of a little girl with Williams Syndrome.
The Role: Celeste (age can be anywhere from 8 to 13)
Celeste is an extraordinary little girl with Williams Syndrome who lives with her American mum and Australian dad in New York. Celeste is highly social, empathetic and extremely friendly. She is verbally expressive and speaks with a poetic flair beyond her years. Celeste's favourite person in the world is her big brother Hal. As long as she's with him, everything is wonderful. When Hal is diagnosed with a life-threatening illness, all Hal wants is to have their yearly family camping holiday by the Australian beach. Celeste escapes into an imaginary reality where she believes she can save Hal by helping him achieve three-holiday wishes.|
